Send us your feedback In the first episode of our new Election 2026 series, Litigation and Public Law Partner, Briony Davies, Special Counsel Daniel Fielding and Senior Associate Mark Calderwood, explore New Zealand's waka jumping legislation and what it means for MPs under the MMP system. They explain how an MP's seat can be vacated, how the courts have interpreted proportionality, and why legal challenges to party decisions are so difficult to sustain.[01:40–03:40] Briony introduces the topic of waka jumping and asks Mark to explain what the term means in legal terms. Mark describes waka jumping as the informal label for provisions introduced by the Electoral Integrity Amendment Act 2018, which were designed to preserve public confidence in the electoral system and maintain proportional representation in Parliament under MMP. He explains that New Zealand previously had similar legislation between 2001 and 2005 following significant party defections after the first MMP election, but that no such rules applied between 2005 and 2018. During that gap, MPs were able to leave their parties and remain in Parliament as independents without losing their seats.[03:40–05:39] The discussion then moves to the mechanics of how an MP's seat may be vacated under the current legislation. Mark explains that one pathway arises when an MP voluntarily notifies the Speaker that they have resigned from the party for which they were elected, in which case the seat is automatically vacated. He notes that this requirement is applied strictly, as demonstrated by the controversy surrounding Meka Whaitiri's resignation. Mark then outlines the second pathway, where a party leader may notify the Speaker that an MP's conduct has distorted or is likely to distort proportionality, provided procedural requirements are met, including notice to the MP, internal party support, and compliance with party rules. He explains that list MPs are replaced by the next person on the party list, while electorate MPs trigger a by‑election, using Jamie Lee Ross departure from the National Party as an illustrative example of how this could have played out.[05:39–09:19] Attention then shifts to the courts' interpretation of proportionality, with Briony explaining the significance of the Supreme Court's decision in Prebble v Huata.

A Wellington bookstore owner is expecting a 35% loss in revenue following the closure of their NZ Post counter - and says she's “devastated” for affected customers, particularly the elderly. NZ Post has announced it will close 142 urban partner stores across the country after reviewing how customers use its urban retail services. No rural stores are currently affected. The decision has left many in the community outraged, saying it was already hard to access a post shop and many people who couldn't go online would struggle. Marsden Books Karori owner and manager Briony Hogg said the shop's estimated revenue would drop 35-40% once the post counter closes at the end of May. Speaking to Ryan Bridge on Newstalk ZB this morning, Hogg said there were only two post shops in the suburb of 18,000, with the other – a Mobil station – staying open. The postal counter itself had low margins but closing it would have a “pretty significant” effect on revenue, thanks to the loss of customers. “People would come in to do their posting and while they're in there they'll buy a card and they'll buy a book and they'll have a chat and we build a relationship,” she said. The store and others like it would now have to think of ways to pivot. Hogg said they had “no idea” why NZ Post chose the petrol station to stay open - “I imagine it was something to do with the bottom line which I understand is important” - but called it “a weird fit”. “Also, there are a lot of concerns around health and safety, elderly people crossing forecourts, you know, that sort of thing so that's the thing that we're really quite devastated about for our customers.” Marsden Books had gone “above and beyond” to provide social connection and community spirit, she said. “I'm just not sure they're going to get that same level of service at a petrol station.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“People are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.”Having leapt all the way south and east from WA to Tassie, we find ourselves back in the middle of them for the third instalment of our state by state by territories tour of Australia for The Year In Beer 2025.Beer gurus Briony Liebich (Flavour Logic) and Steve Brockman (AMSAT Character Malts / Tour Dad) reprise their starring roles from 2024, casting their gaze far, wide and deep across the state's scene.While acknowledging it's been another tough year – Big Shed's announcement they'd been locked out of the brewery by their landlord came just after we recorded the chat – there's plenty more to cover, from the rise of small, often collaborative events to the growing popularity of local ingredients and advanced hop products.They're followed by Alex Marschall and Josh Talbot, who this year oversaw major expansion of Bowden Brewing on the one hand and celebrated ten years of indie-supporting beer bar NOLA on the other. They discuss the changing beer scene, exploring new styles, and hopes to see indie brewers lead the next generation of beer festivals.Speaking of which, the duo behind Adelaide's biggest beer festival, Beer & BBQ, are our final guests. Gareth Lewis and Aaron Sandow look back at the event's tenth anniversary, drop hints about its potential future, praise the loyalty of beer fans, and offer some tips for ways state governments can easily throw their weight behind local producers.This episode is presented by Mogwai Labs.Start of segments: 1:40 – Briony & Steve 21:05 – Alex & Josh 37: 36 – Aaron & GarethTo find out more about featuring on The Crafty Pint Podcast or otherwise partnering with The Crafty Pint, contact craig@craftypint.com.

In the tenth episode of season 4, special host Dr. Cara English, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Academic Officer (CAO) of Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies (CGI), is joined by Dr. Heather Jelonek, CGI Doctor of Behavioral Health (DBH) graduate and Regional Director at McKesson, to unpack the growing impact of insurance claim denials on patient care. They discuss the challenges providers face, the shift toward value-based care, and how DBHs are uniquely prepared to bridge payer-provider gaps while keeping patients at the center of healthcare. Tune in to learn how integrated care leaders are reshaping the future of reimbursement and access.About the Host:Dr. Cara English, DBH is the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Academic Officer of Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies (CGI) and Founder of Terra's Tribe, a maternal mental health advocacy organization in Phoenix, Arizona. Dr. English spearheaded a perinatal behavioral health integration project at Willow Birth Center from 2016 to 2020 that received international acclaim through the publication of outcomes in the International Journal of Integrated Care. Dr. English served as Vice-President of the Postpartum Support International – Arizona Chapter Founding Board of Directors and co-chaired the Education and Legislative Advocacy Committees. She currently serves on the Maternal Mortality Review Program and the Maternal Health Taskforce for the State of Arizona. She served as one of three Arizonan 2020 Mom Nonprofit Policy Fellows in 2021. For her work to establish Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies, Cara was awarded the Psyche Award from the Nicholas & Dorothy Cummings Foundation in 2018 and is more recently the recipient of the 2022 Sierra Tucson Compassion Recognition for her work to improve perinatal mental health integration in Arizona.About the Guests:Dr. Heather Jelonek, DBH, LAC, was born and raised in the greater Chicagoland area. She completed her Bachelor's Degree in Biology at the University of Illinois – Chicago before beginning her healthcare career at First Health Group Corp., where her passion for integrating healthcare began. As she rose within the ranks of the health insurance industry, she earned her Master Degree in Clinical Psychology at Benedictine University in Lisle Illinois. Heather holds professional licenses in the States of Illinois and Arizona as a Counselor specializing in childhood and adolescent behavioral health. Throughout her career, Dr. Jelonek struggled with closing the mental health gap with the healthcare industry and viewed this obstacle as the primary threat to the spiraling costs of healthcare. Her current role as Managing Director of Bright Health Care of Arizona created new opportunities to improve healthcare integration, improve outcomes and reduce costs from a trauma informed approach. During her studies at Cummings Graduate Institute, she was introduced to the ground breaking CDC/Kaiser Adverse Childhood Experiences study and the connection between the long-term medical costs associated and unaddressed childhood trauma. Dr. Jelonek currently resides in Phoenix, Arizona with her two furkids, Briony an English mastiff and Otto a blue heeler mix. She spends her free time hiking, gardening and challenging beliefs that mental health is different than medical health.

How do we mend the fractures of modern life and find our way back to each other? In this conversation, Bryony Greenhill shares a vision for repairing our communities - through land, song and the everyday acts that weave us back together. We explore why so many of us feel disconnected, what's been lost in our modern way of living, and how we can start to rebuild trust, care, and shared purpose in our neighbourhoods and daily lives. Bryony shares stories and ideas for bringing the ‘village' back as a living, breathing way of being together that can meet the challenges of our time.

Briony is a TV presenter and self-taught baker who has appeared on The Great British Bake Off, Escape to the Country, and Food Unwrapped.In a world where socialising often revolves around alcohol, choosing to go alcohol-free can feel like a daunting prospect. But for Briony May Williams, the decision to give up drinking opened up a world of new experiences and joys, proving that sobriety doesn't mean sacrificing the fun or flavour. Briony, best known for her work in the culinary world and her charismatic presence on television, has become a passionate advocate for the alcohol-free movement. Her story is one of transformation, empowerment, and a mission to elevate the standards of alcohol-free drinks.Discovering the “Game Changer”Briony vividly recalls the moment that changed everything. It wasn't just a decision to stop drinking; it was about finding an alcohol-free alternative that sparked joy.“Nicolas [at Club Soda] introduced me to a really nice alcohol-free wine, and it was a game changer.”For Briony, the discovery of a quality non-alcoholic option didn't just satisfy her taste buds; it ignited a passion. She even recounts how she immediately bought several bottles and shared them with a close friend who was also sober.“It's amazing how movements grow. You find something you like, and you share it. You shock people into enjoying alcohol-free.”Raising the Standards: It's Time for ChangeBriony is quick to point out that not all alcohol-free options are created equal. Her experiences have shown her the highs and lows of the market, and she's not afraid to challenge establishments when they fall short.“It infuriates me when I go to a cocktail bar, and they give me some elderflower with soda water. That's just lazy,”Briony's frustration is not just about the lack of options; it's about the missed opportunity to create something memorable.Her message is clear: alcohol-free drinks deserve the same attention to detail and creativity as their alcoholic counterparts. For Briony, it's not just about replicating the taste of alcohol.“It doesn't have to taste exactly like a glass of rosé; it just has to taste amazing. I want it to be packed full of flavour, to have that dryness on the palate, and most importantly, to feel special.”Mental Health and Sobriety: A Transformative JourneyGoing alcohol-free hasn't just changed what Briony drinks; it's transformed her life. She openly discusses how her decision has had a profound impact on her mental health and well-being.“I've always struggled with depression, but in the last 10 months, it has been infinitely better.”She attributes much of her improvement to her decision to quit drinking. Alongside better mental health, Briony has experienced weight loss, better eating habits, and an improved relationship with her husband and daughter.This newfound clarity has fueled Briony's excitement for the future.“I'm so happy. I used to love going out and getting drunk; I loved the experience. But now, I feel so much better.”It's a message that resonates with many people exploring alcohol-free options—not as a compromise but as a way to enhance their overall well-being and relationships.A Mission for Better Drinks: Consumers as Catalysts for ChangeBriony's enthusiasm for alcohol-free drinks goes beyond personal enjoyment; she's on a mission to change the market.

Volunteering opportunities for individuals to become community champions and help spread awareness in their neighbourhoods.
